Alternate Names: Macrophage migration inhibitory factor, MIF, phenylpyruvate tautomerase, L-dopachrome tautomerase, L-dopachrome isomerase, glycosylation-inhibiting factor, GIF, MIF, GLIF, MMIFDescription:
MIF (migration inhibitory factor) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine involved in the innate immune response to bacterial pathogens. The expression of MIF at sites of inflammation suggests a role as a mediator in regulating the functions of macrophages in host defense, and data has shown that MIF counteracts the anti-inflammatory activity of glucocorticoids. This cytokine has phenylpyruvate tautomerase and dopachrome tautomerase activity in vitro, but the physiological substrate is unknown. Human MIF acts on fibroblasts by inducing IL-1, IL-8 and MMP expression, and also stimulates NO production and TNF-alpha release following IFN-gamma activation on macrophages. Recombinant Human MIF forms a trimer in solution due to the interaction of the beta strands of the MIF proteins. Human MIF is a non-glycosylated polypeptide consisting of 115 amino acids with a MW of 12.5 kDa.

Source: E. coli. Endotoxin level as measured by LAL is <0.01ng/ug or <0.1EU/ug.

Applications: E, WB

Application Notes:
Human MIF biological activity was measured in an agarose microdroplet assay using human U937 cells as targets. The optimal range of activity found for human MIF in this assay was 0.5-1ug/ml.

Accession No.: P14174
